I actually had a fantastic time with ESO in the early game, because everything was new and fun and magical.

1k+ hours in I started feeling like that.

Yeah the UX for setting it up was not great. Conversely though, the UX for using it has been fantastic so far. My biggest concern was that the clients would feel dated (on Android esp), but no, they’re surprisingly polished!

Oh no! And just when I finally got around to setting up an XMPP server, too!

Yep.

Grew up with a steadfast pacifist / non-violent mindset. “Use words, not weapons”, “if you resort to violence, you’ve already lost”,…

The past 10 years have, well, awoken me, if you will. There’s an entire class of people that needs to be tabula-rasa-ed for the benfit, no, for the survival of the remaining 99%.

There literally is no other way.

Your last point resonates with me deeply.

It’s also one of the main drivers for my frustration with / rage against the unfair economic system we live in. Working 10-20hrs/week should be the goal, so we can have most of our days to ourselves doing the things we love.

Please tell me this is a satirical nod towards Honey & Co.

So do they

Here’s the email I got from them:

Dear xxx,

This mail is to inform you about an unfortunate, but necessary price change that we must make.

There have been drastic price increases in various areas in the IT branch recently. That is why, unfortunately, we must also increase the prices of our products.

The costs to operate our infrastructure and to buy new hardware have both increased dramatically. Therefore, our price adjustment will affect both your existing products and new orders.

The underlying causes of the increased costs are, among others, the exploding demand for AI-related computing power and for cloud services. In addition, raw material prices and production costs have also generally risen for manufacturers. The costs for RAM and SSDs especially have risen by a large amount. For example, the cost for DRAM memory has increased up to 500% since September 2025. And according to market researchers like TrendForce, this price trend will continue throughout the year.

We have genuinely tried hard to optimize our costs and to prevent increasing our prices for as long as possible. But we can no longer compensate for the strain that it has placed on our operations. We want to continue to deliver quality products that meet both our standards and your expectations, so we must take this step.

The price changes will take effect on 1 April 2026 for both new orders and existing products. For orders placed before 1 April 2026, but delivered after 1 April 2026, the adjusted prices will apply.

The following existing products, listed under the customer number specified in the subject line, are affected by the price increase as follows.

Product previous price New price as of 1 April 2026 Server Auction € 43.56 € 44.87 all prices incl. 21% vat

We know that price changes are always a challenge for everyone. However, we believe that our products’ prices and conditions still have a competitive price-to-performance ratio.

We have prepared a list of all new prices for you on Hetzner Docs at https://docs.hetzner.com/general/infrastructure-and-availability/price-adjustment. Starting on 1 April 2026, the new prices will also be on our website.

If you do not wish to continue your contract, you can cancel the products within the regular cancellation periods via your administration interface.

We hope that you will be able to understand and accept our decision, and that we are sorry that we have to change our prices.

If you have any questions, we will be happy to help. Please log onto your account and go to “Support” in the menu and create a support request.

Kind regards,

Hetzner Online

1.31 for me!

Yeah. I have a feeling that stopping it is, somehow, not desirable to a portion of the commentors.

Did you prompt it in English, or on Chinese? This is just a next-token-predictor, and it will largely use its English training data for its English output prediction.

This is not surprising. Nor is it indicative of, well, anything.

And yet, today, Taiwan is a sovereign state and wants to keep it that way, which is the only thing that matters here. This is pretty straightforward.

PWA allows it to be a one-stop-shop that functions well enough across any device universally

I do get it, esp. because it significantly reduces development efforts required. I’ve just personally never liked them, and I suspect I’m not alone in this.

However, there are native applications that could be used instead, such as the desktop app Dino, which is compatible with Movim’s group video calls. Unfortunately it is not yet able to screenshare.

Ah, that’s good to know, thank you!

it currently receives $43 a month from patreon

ouch.

Really cool project. Unfortunately, in this day and age, not having a desktop and mobile app is really hard to sell. PWAs are just not the same.

Also, curious: hie compatible is this actually with the rest of the XMPP ecosystem? From the architecture description, movin sits between its frontend and an xmpp server. But if another user connects to that same xmpp server from a non-movin client, how mich are they able to see and do?

It’s because people get mislead by the “agent”, assuming there’s something actually intelligent at the other end, able to act like they would, just… Automated.

What a clown. In what world do you require an LLM to check for duplicate pictures??

I mean, good on him for realizing that LLMs are dogshit. But still.

If all jobs were lost if rich people disappeared, then jobs aren’t really necessary.

If jobs are necessary self-evidently, they do not require rich people to exist or get done.

Recently, when we don’t feel like cooking after work, we’ve been making mashed potatoes (the pre-packaged, powder kind, because it’s WAY less work and surprisingly good), and then topping it with a big spoon of Laoganma, specifically the Crispy Chilly in Oil. Takes less than 5 minutes from geting the pot to sitting down to eat.

If you’re feeling extra fancy, fry an egg to put on top.
